  • Half a mile from sandy Shanklin beach
  • Kids' clubs, pool, spa pool, diner, bar and restaurant
  • Varied entertainment in the evenings
Location, location, location… Lower Hyde Holiday Park is only half a mile from the glorious sandy sweep of Shanklin Beach, one of the most popular spots on the Isle of Wight. If the sun has got his hat on, you can stretch out on the loungers beside the heated outdoor pool and watch the kids zoom down the flume; if it’s raining, there’s a spa pool inside instead. And whatever the forecast, you can look lively with a kickabout on the all-weather sports court. The site also has the Barnhouse bar and restaurant, and evening entertainment is sorted at the spacious Squires Showbar with its busy schedule of live bands, discos and cabaret. Lower Hyde also has a full range of kids' clubs, with characters such as Sparky to keep the younger ones fizzing, and suitably cool activities such as film making for teens.

Liked: The staff are wonderful. 10 out of 10. Excellent welcome at check in. We were unsure of the electric box that belonged to the large pitch and a groundsman came as soon as we called and he helped us. When it came time to leave we were stuck in the mud due to the extensive rain. We met the most amazing staff member who had much more patience than we deserved. He helped us, and did not give up until we have been towed off the plot.

Disliked: NOTHING - Great people make a great place to stay.

Liked: Great location, close to Shanklin beach. Facilities were all clean and showers were spacious and hot! Having entertainment on site, plus a restaurant and small shop is really handy, and the boys loved the park too. Staff were so friendly and helpful, it was a pleasure to stay here and we'll be coming back again for certain!

Disliked: Mouldy price tags in shop fridges, put of buying anything. Mens toilets although most the time extreamly clean, some male campers are disgusting and left a cubical covered in crap. Should be ashamed of themselves

Liked: We had a lovely stay at Lower Hyde. It was quiet, and very well kept. We had a huge amount of space and didn't feel crammed in like you do at some sites. The showers/toilets were nice and warm and really clean. We didn't use the pool/ sports or Bar areas bit they all looked really well kept. Very reasonable price too, will definitely stay again

Disliked: Nothing

Local attractions

Aside from its fab beach, Shanklin also has a good variety of shops, seaside amusements and eateries, with some of the best examples of the latter to be found in the Old Village, a picture-perfect cluster of thatched cottages and winding streets. The Shanklin Chine is a lovely wooded gorge with waterfalls and nature trails, and is doubly atmospheric when it’s lit up on summer evenings. For those who like exploring by bike or Shank’s pony, there are miles of footpaths and cycling tracks around Lower Hyde Holiday Park. Some of the Isle of Wight’s most popular family attractions are nearby too, including Carisbrooke Castle, Dinosaur Isle and the Blackgang Chine theme park.
